Guanazole

SKU: orb2815633

Description

Guanazole is a triazole-based antimetabolite that acts as a ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) inhibitor. It exerts cytostatic effects by scavenging the essential tyrosyl radical of RNR, thereby blocking DNA synthesis. This mechanism supports its use in cancer research applications, both in vitro and in vivo, for studying cell proliferation and nucleotide metabolism.
